First, Pastor asked us to take a group photo but there was a catch. The boys were to get a chair, set it up and hold it as the girl sit. Many first timers here because none of us did this before.
Although the session had it's subtle share of light hearted moments, it was one of the most tense subjects touched. Discretion. We are thought to carry ourselves properly and to look out for sexual predators who act overly discreet and dump the girl/boy after they had their fill.
There was also the passage "I will not be mastered by anything". Basically means we must avoid being consumed/addicted/ mastered by anything of the world. Common examples include foul language, pornography, dirty jokes, violent movies(which I admit is kinda cool) or it could be anything. Indeed it is addictive and hard to let go but that doesn't make it okay for us to say it out. Be mastered only by God and you will be guaranteed of maximum discretion.
Pastor also chastised most of us by criticizing our foul language, regardless if it is spoken, typed or written. Which what gives people a bad name. How much of a difference can we make if we are no better than the people around us or if we're worse than them. Hard to swallow right, but it's the only way to do it.
Then there was dinner at McDonalds. Feels extra weird to be walking in all dressed up. Oh Gosh.
